CVE-2007-6610
unp 1.0.12, and other versions before 1.0.14, does not properly escape file names, which might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a filename argument.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.28%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
